I am writing this letter in response to Ken Hall's column on Feb. 5, "Gas prices none of official's business."

While I usually respect Ken Hall for holding our elected officials responsible for their actions, I take exception to his taking Assemblyman James Skoufis to task for going after Chestnut Petroleum Distributors Inc. for its outrageously high gasoline prices in the Town of Highlands.

Skoufis listened to the concerns of his constituents and took action. I have no problem with the way Skoufis handled the situation as it was effective and helped his constituents. I would say that Chestnut Petroleum Distributors Inc. has been bullying the citizens of Highland Falls and Fort Montgomery for far too long.
